Probably have a point, it seems like Penn State can never get any takedowns.

That Paddy kid impressed me with his toughness.
I don't know. Luke and Marcus both looked superior with their conditioning. Welsh wrestled unimpressive but then blew up an exhausted opponent and Cole was the third OT winner and seemed to have more energy then Feldman. I thought they looked pretty darn good.
Worst match of his season. Maybe he had the former team hejee bejees?
I was there and I have to tell you, not once did I feel bored.
No, it is obvious there must be a wrestle off. We need to reach into the portal, now!!!!
Nah, he brings a lot of excitement to the match and he is always extolling the excellence of PSU.
OSU is a really good team. Probably second best in the country. The two OSUs are in the second tier behind PSU in their own tier. There are miles between those two tiers.
He's over the top, during every commercial break i think he takes a double hit of smelling salts.
For all the grief Arnold has received this season, without his big upset tonight Iowa is 3-4 on the season and tied for tenth in the B1G with Wisconsin!
Ben Askren and me to my buddy, though I said best case scenario.
Iowa's Carver record is 15,955. Penn State had the indoor record of 15,998. Tonight's 16,006 is now the new indoor record.Doesn’t look like Iowa is gonna set an attendance record tonight vs Michigan.……. Lots of empty seats.
Iowa holds the record for outdoor attendance, 42,000 plus in the football stadium against Oklahoma St.
It doesn't, and it's not that close. I've got the 2018 team better at five weights (most decisively better), the 2026 team better at two weights, and three near toss-ups. The 2025-26 anOSU team is very good; the 2017-18 team was exceptional.
Tomasello > Bouzakis
Pletcher = Davino (toss-up, maybe edge Davino over the sophomore Pletcher)
Mendez > McKenna
Hayes = Stiles (toss-up)
Micah Jordan = Cannon (toss-up)
Bo Jordan > Paddy Gallagher
Kharchla > Romero (174 was sort of a hole in 2018, worst weight in line-up)
Martin > Fishback
Moore > Geog
Snyder > Feldman

In 1974 Wade Schalles, a 158 lb wrestler for Clarion, went up two weight classes to wrestle Floyd Hitchcock of Bloomsburg at 177 lbs in the PSAC Wrestling Championship Tournament.
Schalles PINNED Hitchcock and was voted the most outstanding wrestler award for his achievement.
Schalles was ineligible to wrestle in the NCAA DI wrestling tournament because of an NCAA violation he incurred.
Hitchcock not only won the National Championship at 177 lbs, but he was also named THE MOST OUTSTANDING WRESTLER for the tournament
Um, no. Taylor was never going to beat Dake. Dake was Taylor's daddy.Blaze/Davino is a lot like Dake/Taylor. Usually that's going to lean ever so slightly toward Blaze/Dake ..but it's razor thin and the learning curve here for the first match is for Marcus to be more active in the first 5 minutes to either get that takedown or stay clear of getting dinged, which could have happened there in the first one.
With that said there is no way Byrd deserves the 1 seed in two weeks and the only person who thinks so is our new resident hater Corby, who I am now calling MSU157
Devino will beat Blaze before he graduates.
PSU should schedule a match for a WHITE OUT
Not true. Posted earlier Blaze should get the #1 with the win tonight and his strength of schedule. I also picked him to win and NCAA title this year before the season started. Not many here were doing that in October. What a haterBlaze/Davino is a lot like Dake/Taylor.

The best representation was a photo where he and Tom B were holding a trophy. Big's I believe. Neither wanted to give it up. They both must of known it might be their last shot being in the proximity of one.
Technique… All day long. Besides, I think a lot of guys look (and think they are stronger) than guys like Levi and Kasak until they feel that country boy strength and realize they’re on the mat with a brown bear.
Won money with a psu-16.5 and iowa+ 1.5 parlay. Both teams were -160.

Askren. He nailed it. I over estimated tOSU and had it 8-2.
You're right but he didn't seem sharp at all. For a guy with his defense he was super easy to finish on.
